NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden said the touted new director of the CIA under the Trump administration believes that "dissidents such as myself" should be put to death, during a Q&A in Oslo in which he participated via video link from Moscow on Friday.
Snowden said that “under the new president, as the news today says, the new CIA director [Mike Pompeo] is an individual who believes that dissidents such as myself should be put to death, they believe that that is the appropriate solution to disagreeing with the government.”
He also commented on the global role of the US government, stating: “I don’t think it’s controversial to say the United States government is the most powerful government in the history of the world. We have never seen a state with this much influence.” Via Ruptly. Posted By Abdul
